RT Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal)ELON: IF EARTH SUCKS, SPACEX IS EXPANDING THE MAP TO "MOON BASE ALPHA"“You can think of space as being concentric shells of the surface of the Earth. It’s the surface of the Earth, but it’s a series of concentric shells.Imagine if there were just a few thousand airstreams on Earth. What are the odds that they’d hit each other?So the goal of SpaceX is to get rocket technology to a point where we can extend life beyond Earth, and establish a self-sustaining city on Mars.Imagine i ...

Kids everywhere could see it with their own eyes with a simple binoculars. ...
